Spyderco Bug

Description

The Spyderco Bug is one of the UK's best selling non-locking folding knives - and it's tiny.­

A­erodynamically the bumble bee shouldn't be able to fly but someone forgot to tell the bee. The flight of the bumble bee defies both nature and one’s expectations that something that small can perform such a grand maneuver. Like bumblebees, Spyderco Bugs perform unexpectedly. The Bug, not much larger than a bee, is the latest addition. Spyderco's SLIPITS are non-locking slip- joint knives. They have no locking mechanism holding the blade open, relying instead on resistant pressure at the pivot area when the blade is extended and being used. Bugs are part of the SLIPIT group and thus UK friendly carry.

The flat ground blade is 3Cr13MoV stainless steel available with a PlainEdge. The Bug’s handle offers a flat surfac­e for a small amount of engraving or embellishment and can be customized for use as jewelry or a gift item. Positioned on the end of the handle is a lanyard hole large enough to thread with a chain and be worn around the neck or slipped onto a key chain. The Bug is the smallest folder in the Spyderco lineup.

Great little knife Review by C Egan

Rating

Love this knife, solid feel, good opening mechanism and sharp blade.
Great for anyone’s collection. For me it’s more of a novelty item rather than a practical tool but still a fantastic knife. As always top class service from Heinnie. (Posted on 7 October 2019)

Little charmer...Review by Stevo

Rating

So many reviews endorse this tiny slipjoint. After buying one it is easy to understand why. It is well made, with a lively snap and very positive engagement. Alright, it’s not really big enough for food prep, but all the other day to day tasks of a little pocket knife are well within its ability.

Small but well formed, the Bug is every bit as charming in person as its admirers claim. I feel it is as tiny as I would like to go in terms of functionality and ergonomics. Right at the cusp of usefulness versus ornamentation.

The fit and finish is very good. The symmetry of the grinds is well done. Placing it next to a UKPK brings an amused smile. Needless to say it all but disappears in a pocket. And that is the only cautionary thought that comes to mind. It would be easy to forget the whereabouts of this diminutive but very useful little gem. But overall, yes, a welcome addition to any collection.

Wonderful service and delivery from HH, as ever.(Posted on 10 June 2019)

A practical novelty!Review by Lauren K

Rating

I bought this little fella as a novelty for my keychain. I was surprised to find out how functional it really is.

First, look at the picture. Realise the two indents in the scales? They're for your first two fingers. They're that tiny. Seriously, it's unreal.

I only wanted it to be able to boast that I have a legit Spyderco on me at all times, but I've found myself using this thing all the time at work to open letters and packages. People just kept borrowing my UKPK that was my EDC, to the point I began bringing a second EDC with me that also g ot borrowed nonstop. Now it's just a given that my two real knives get lent to people sometime in the morning and I spend the rest of the day using hte Bug. And I'm fine with it.

Yes, it's China-made, but we all know that's no longer the mark of shame it once was in the knife world. This thing came razor-sharp out of the box and has kept a remarkable edge, even when it's been used to sharpen pencils (I own a pencil sharpener, but let's be honest, it's far cooler to do it with a knife). It feels very solidly constructed even though it looks like it fell out of a Christmas cracker.

Heck, I even got a laugh when a security guard at one of our offices had to do a routine checklist including declaring if we were carrying any weapons. I pulled out the Bug and instantly made a new friend with the jokes that commenced.

Overall, I can't recommend this enough. Yes, it's an amusing novelty, but it's also a legit great tiny knife that I've been able to use as a backup when my EDC gets borrowed for several hours. They used to be cheaper but £15 is about the upper limit of what I'd be willing to pay. If Spyderco increase the price again I may knock off a star, but for now it's a solid easy 5.(Posted on 26 June 2018)

Awesome little cutterReview by Woodhead

Rating

HH provide quick reliable service and have superb loyalty to their customers. The Bug, very small but a nice strong back spring, razor sharp OTB and a great 2 finger and thumb hold gives you good purchase if you had to use her. 2 handed opening means you won’t surprise anyone f*king it open and although the blade shapes a little aggressive the blades so small nobody will probably even know you have a knife. Great purchase very pleased with it. (Posted on 4 November 2017)

Floppy bladeReview by Auta

The blade of mine now flops open of its own accord, making it troublesome to have in a trouser pocket. Tried to fix it, but can't. It's had minimal use over some three years - so quite why the "lock" has failed so is puzzling. But it was nice while it lasted!(Posted on 18 July 2017)

Tiny, but very sharp and very usable. Review by Wizzzard

Rating

1st purchase from Heinnie and can only echo what everybody else has said. Fantastic service and fast.
The bug is tiny. I read the specs and reviews but a 3.3 cm blade really is tiny. It is a serious knife though feels solidly built and is sharp straight from the tiny Spyderco box. It is on my keyring and will go everywhere with me. It is totally inoffensive but is up to most of the jobs I am likely to encounter. (Posted on 22 February 2017)

This is probably the one bit of must-have kit for the ordinary 21st century human. There is just no reason not to have one of these on your key-ring, unless you're about to board an aircraft. Though I usually have a bigger, UK-legal knife on my person as well, this is fantastic for small everyday tasks without freaking out your work colleagues, as well as being lovely for more delicate, craft knife style work. Top bit of gear.(Posted on 26 October 2016)

The Spyderco Bug.
What a great little tool, It may be small but it is not a toy!
Razor sharp out of the box, looks great on a keyring and very handy too.
My partner payed for this lovely little knife for me yesterday as a prezzie at about 1.30pm and it was at my door today at about 2.30pm. I don't know how you do it HH but thank you.
Would recommend to anyone thinking about getting one of these little Spyderco Bug knives just go for it. It's worth every penny and very well made, now got my eye on the next two sizes up.
Once again thanks you HH.(Posted on 24 February 2016)

Oh dear....Review by Ricky

Rating

I bought three of these a while ago and all three have been lost. No problem, I will get a new one, or so I thought. But the price has tripled. This Chinese micro-knife is not in the same league as an Alox Victorinox SD but now costs nearly as much, nor is Chinese exchange rate, labour cost etc comparable with the Western equivalent.
Having said that, they sit invisibly on a key ring , are well-made and sharp. They are pleasing to handle and capable, real knives for light tasks.
But fifteen quid? Not a chance. It was a pleasing buy at Five Ninety-Nine but now Spyderco are just being silly.(Posted on 9 February 2016)

Realised I couldn't do without itReview by Troy

I bought one of these, lost it, went to buy another but the price had gone up quite a bit, had a moan (see below), then found it again!

Such a little joy, I keep it in my wallet and use it more than any other knife, for cutting string, opening boxes, cleaning my nails, slicing orange peel ....

If I lost it again I'd buy another in a flash, the price is so worth it.

Really functional design, superb quality, sharp and despite its size very very useful. (Posted on 1 July 2015)

First, the product. As others have said, it really is tiny, 40 mm from end to end. But bloody sharp. Will service as a very useful 'put it in the pocket and forget about it until you need it' tool.

Secondly, Heinnie Haynes service. This poses a a conundrum. Why is it that Heinnie Haynes can consistently despatch orders within minutes, literally minutes of placing the order, and the package arrives first thing next day, yet other companies cannot? A thing of wonder, possibly up there as one of the Wonders of the World, I suspect. Well don HH(Posted on 6 March 2015)

Excellent quality knife!

Rule No. 9Review by Geoff Roberts

If you abide by the above "Gibbs" rule (Never go anywhere without a knife), as I do, this is a very useful back-up to my EDC SAK. I've had mine for a good while and keep it, with my Photon Microlight II, on my person at all sensible times. It comes with a reasonable edge and will take a better one (if you know how, of course). Keep it lubricated though or it will be difficult to open.(Posted on 1 January 2014)

A fantastic little knifeReview by Simon

Rating

This is a great little knife, though is really is very, very tiny. Perfect to just put in your pocket and forget about until you need it to open a parcel or whatever.

It's good quality, too. I've had mine a month, now, and have encountered no problems whatsoever. Takes and holds a good sharp edge. I've found that putting it on a keyring makes it easier to hold and use.

One thing, though. If you're buying this knife as a present, get one for yourself at the same time. Otherwise, you'll just be placing a second order as soon as you've seen how brilliant this knife is... (I speak from experience here.)(Posted on 13 December 2013)

Spyderco slipit bug set!Review by SIMON

I know what you're thinking this is not the set! Well that's true but seen as it has been discontiuned, this is the only option for reviewing it. First, let me say all three knives come razor sharp out the box and for UK legal slip joint folders there is little or no blade play. All three can and do find a every day use. The Bug makes a great key ring knife either for you or the missus. The Honeybee and Grasshopper both make good pocket knives or for toolbox or survival kits. All in all excellent value for money! 27quid for all three!!! I believe H.H have one set left! Buy it you will not be disappointed. Ordered mine Monday morning arrived Tuesday lunch! You can't get better than Heinnies service! Thanks guys.(Posted on 13 September 2013)

Better than othersReview by jack

For the price you get so much. Razor sharp blade (I sliced myself open with it very badly) and fantastic construction, but it began rusting after a while. However, a light brush of sand paper cleaned that right off. Overall it's pretty good, but very, very
small, only for keyring purposes. (Posted on 29 April 2013)

Not a JokeReview by R C

Rating

I showed this to my daughter and she started laughing.

What isn't a joke is the sharpness of the blade. Run it over a strop and you have a scalpel.

I immediately attached it to my keys as I knew I'd loose it in 5 minutes because it's so small.

While it's not a locker, it does have a very tight open position, which is reassuring considering the sharpness of the blade.

Great for opening parcels, fine craft work, sharpening pencils and other small jobs around the house. Probably as small as you can make knife and still have it useful.(Posted on 18 April 2013)

tiny but terrificReview by Simon

This is without doubt the biggest surprise I have ever had.
I wanted a keychain knife that is UK legal... I have a Gerber Artifact which I have modified so it will not lock but wanted something more special. Checked out all the reviews and ordered this little baby but was not prepared for the miniscule size despite all the Youtube reviews and research.
It is REALLY TINY!
Gorgeous bit of man jewellery but with the edge of a razor, tested it on post it notes and rough newspaper and it cut it like butter. Needed to trim some 550 paracord and it was so easy I had to do it a few times to convince myself that this little beast was actually doing it!
Now it is on a small thin paracord thong and on my keyring alongside my Gerber Shard, Led light and Acme Tornado whistle.
I am so impressed by it that I am giving serious consideration to buying more as zipper pulls for some of my jackets and bags.

At first sight, looks like it came in a Christmas cracker. It's so small, but once you open it, you appreciate the build quality. I have a SOG Micron, but this is so much more solid, and easier to open. Razor sharp OTB, you cannot afford not to have one on your keyring. It slices string, parcel strapping, tie wraps, fingers etc. Bought 2; 1 for keys, 1 for survival tin. This is the smallest practical blade you will ever buy. At this price, it's a no brainer.

In spite of the photo and reading the spec it is smaller than I thought. Very sharp out of the surprisingly small box. Mine is very tight opening and closing but that might change with use. Can't see the joins on the back of the knife. Not sure yet how useful it'll be because of its size. Very unassuming. Unlikely to frighten anyone because it is so very very small.(Posted on 6 February 2013)

An excellent little…Review by Anonymous reviewer

An excellent little knife, it's discreet enough to use where people may be 'upset' seeing someone with a knife.

I'd seen the reviews saying it's small but wasn't expecting it to be this small, the box it came in is as long as the short side of a credit card, folded the knife is about 1mm shorter than a AAA battery & open it's about as long as a car key.

It's surgically sharp, as sharp if not sharper than some of the disposable scalpels I've used in work.

For less than ?ú7 you can't go wrong.

This is tiny, even compared to most peoples ideas of a 'normal' penknife. Really, really tiny. On the other hand it's sharp and robust enough for day to day use cutting tape or bailing straps on parcels, cutting zip-ties etc. It goes un-noticed in terms of size and weight on your keys, and saves you getting out your regular 'Legal EDC' knife in situations where that might bother people.

I'm not generally a fan of Spyderco knives, but for the money you really can't go wrong with this; I'll definitely be buying a few more of them.(Posted on 30 June 2012)

This thing really…Review by Rob

Rating

This thing really is tiny! Even the 50p for scale in the demo picture doesn't quite prepare you for it.

It comes in a lovely presentation box, and was shaving sharp straight from the factory (I have the bald patches on my arms to prove it!)

The quality is fantastic too, most small knives are flimsy, quite crude in their construction, but the bug has a lovely brushed finish with the laser etched logo. The slipjoint spring on the back of the handle is almost invisible when the knife is closed.

The hole makes it perhaps easier to open than knives with a fingernail notch.

The liner lock doesn't resist blade closure quite as well as the Sog Micron that arrived at the same time but the quality of the Bug definitely seems better!(Posted on 12 January 2012)

I have numerous knives, all shapes and sizes. Some rather expensive. This is just a perfect quality little keychain knife,very aesthetically pleasing and yet so useful! So flipping addictive I've bought the honeybee, grasshopper and ordered another bug! HH, brilliant service as usual. One of the best delivery services on the net. Thank you!(Posted on 18 July 2011)

It would be useful if the country where the knife was made was on the website, as I would not have bought this one if I had known it was made in China.(Posted on 6 July 2011)

Cheap as chips...Review by J

Diamond quality. I've now bought FOUR of these; 2 for mois, one for my father and one for a friend. Such quality from Spyderco. Solid little knife.

Like others have said, it really feels like it should be far more expensive.

I've also bought one of the next one up as well.

Spyderco have always made classy knives, this knife is seriously no exception.

Amazingly useful, un-offensive and did I say how useful this little thing is?

Plus I need not say anything about Heinnie Haynes' service- I've frequented this shop for many years and not one have I had to wait longer than a single working day to receive what I have bought.(Posted on 20 June 2011)

Buy it, buy it now!Review by RD

This was the first Spyderco I ever bought. It's a dinky little knife and cheap as can be. However it comes out of the box shave sharp. For such a cheap knife I was fully expecting there to be a bit of give/movement of the blade when fully open, there isn't.

Truely fantastic knife for the money. So good within a few days I ordered the Honeybee and Grasshopper.

Also makes me feel confident that if I ever wanted to spend more money on a pocket knife then Spyderco must be the ones to look at, if the cheap ones are THIS good.....

PS very good service from Heinnie...thank you. (Posted on 18 June 2011)

I bought this to go on my key ring as a bit of a novelty. Having had it for a few weeks now, I've found it to be one of the most useful knives I've ever owned. Sharp otb, and very well constructed, it's coped with everything I've asked of it. Tbh, I can't think of a single reason why everybody shouldn't own one. Excellent service from HH as well, I shall definately buy from here again.(Posted on 16 June 2011)

My third Bug. First was blunt, second had weak spring but very good edge. Third is incredibly sharp - well done Spyderco - but has very strong spring indeed. No prob for me, but was bought for my boy who can't open or close it safely. I'll have to keep it myself - hooray! (Posted on 2 March 2011)

This is a great little knife. Its very small and neat and its clever shape means you can hold it securely and get pressure on the blade easily despite its size.

been carrying this mini blade for a few months now and used it every day razor sharp out the box packs a lot of cutting power for such a tiny blade solid build by spyderco i have this knife on my key ring and use it to cut open boxes at work cuts through 5mm cardboard no problem and at a price to meet any budget the only thing i would say to improve on is the lanyard hole could be a bit bigger to fit a standard split ring having said that this knife is a must have(Posted on 22 July 2010)

Fantastic EDC keyring bladeReview by H.R.C

Rating

Arrived razor sharp, and very quickly. It is absolutely miniscule; length of my first finger fully open. Firm lockup and audible click. Way out performs the SOG micron in terms of price, build quality, size and blade edge. Comfortable fit in the hand too, unlike the SOG. Possible one handed opening using the Niteize #2 S biner - note this will not fit through the Bug's lanyard hole, use a keyring. Perfection in miniature.(Posted on 17 July 2010)

Excellent little things. Incredible that, for most daily tasks, such a small blade will more than suffice, nothing bigger really needed. Wear mine around my neck on chain: wish spyderco would consider bringing out a titanium version that would make it lighter.

Easy to open this one-handed with few minutes' practice. This isn't some tiny give-away type gimmick: it is a proper knife, scaled down to really interesting tiny proportions. (Posted on 27 May 2010)

The perfect keyring addition.Review by Wesley

Rating

I had read and seen pictures about how small this knife is, after all that is the reason I ordered it. However when I received it I was shocked to see it up close.

This thing is so tiny and spec legal for the UK that nobody should be able to argue with you about it. It (in my opinion) is just too small for anyone to complain about unless you are in a building where such items are now allowed by policy.(Posted on 20 May 2010)

UK Legal Survival Keyring KnifeReview by Alister Scott

I've just got this knife today (excellent service from Heinnie as usual). It's small, very small but perfectly suited for the purpose in mind, that is to add to my survival keyring as legal EDC in the UK. I've just tried it out and made some feather sticks with it. It also produces a nice shower of sparks from a ranger firesteel. It doesn't weigh much and doesn't add much to the keyring to make it bulky in your pocket. A great little knife!(Posted on 19 May 2010)

Great knife, but not as sharp as claimed.Review by Chris

Rating

This knife really is tiny and you will never fully understand the size until you actually put one in your hands. It will fit on standard sized keychains. It's definetly a two-handed opener because the Spydie hole is just there for the style. It is pretty solid and cuts through a lot of small stuff with ease (paper, plastic bags, packaging, zip ties etc...).

Only negative is that mine didn't come "arm hair shaving sharp" and I can feel the edge quite easily without cutting myself. (Posted on 15 April 2010)

This is my second Spyderco Bug. It's sharper than the first one and shaves arm hair easily. The last one didn't. It has a weaker spring than the last one and doesn't feel as secure when open, so 4 points and not 5.
Nevertheless it's a very good knife - small, well-made, fits on keyring, and has a good edge.
Ordered yesterday late afternoon and arrived this morning. Thanks Heinnie!(Posted on 4 February 2010)

Received my Bug today - even though I knew this knife was going to be small I was (and still am) amazed by how miniscule it is!

Wow! This knife is absolutely tiny!
The size makes it perfect to put in a survival tin or similar; its sharp and so probably a better alternative to what you get as standard.
My only complaint is that the locking mechanism isn't particularly secure, it doesnt take much to fold the blade back.

Other than that, its a great knife for a great price.

Heinnie's service was impeccable; I ordered it on Monday and it arrived on Wedsnesday, with the standard (free!) shipping.(Posted on 1 April 2009)
